Remove Formatting Removes character formatting for selected characters,
paragraph formatting for a selected paragraph, or all formatting from a selected
paragraph. (Not available for single-line text.)
Background Mask Displays the
Background Mask dialog box (page 686). (Not
available for table cells and single-line text.)
Stack Creates stacked text, for example, fractions, if the selected text contains
stack characters. Also, unstacks text if stacked text is selected. When the stack
characters, carat (^), forward slash (/), and pound sign (#), are used, the text
to the left of the stack character is stacked on top of the text to the right.
By default, text that contains a carat converts to left-justified tolerance values.
Text that contains the forward slash converts to center-justified fractional
numbers; the slash is converted to a horizontal bar the length of the longer
text string. Text that contains the pound sign converts to a fraction separated
by a diagonal bar the height of the two text strings. The characters above the
diagonal fraction bar are bottom-right aligned; the characters beneath the
diagonal bar are top-left aligned.
Editor Settings Displays a list of options for the text editor. See
Editor Settings
(page ?) for more information.
Editor Settings
Provides options for changing the behavior of the text editor and provides
additional editing options. Options are specific to the Editor Settings menu
and are not available elsewhere in the text editor.
NOTE Some options may not be available depending on what you are editing.
Always Display As WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) Controls
display of the In-Place Text Editor and the text within it. When unchecked,
the drawing view is zoomed and rotated if need so the text that would
otherwise be difficult to read (if it is very small, very large, or is rotated) is
displayed at a legible size and is oriented horizontally so that you can easily
read and edit it.
When this option is checked, the
MTEXTFIXED (page 1373) system variable will
be set to 0. Otherwise, MTEXTFIXED will be set to 2.
Show Ruler Controls the display of the ruler.
Opaque Background When selected, makes the background of the editor
opaque. (Not available for table cells.)
Check Spelling Determines whether As-You-Type spell checking is on or off.
